PRAYER

Matthew 14:13-21 – Jesus Feeds the Five Thousand

13 When Jesus heard what had happened, he withdrew by boat privately to a solitary place. Hearing of this, the crowds followed him on foot from the towns.14 When Jesus landed and saw a large crowd, he had compassion on them and healed their sick.

15 As evening approached, the disciples came to him and said, “This is a remote place, and it’s already getting late. Send the crowds away, so they can go to the villages and buy themselves some food.”

16 Jesus replied, “They do not need to go away. You give them something to eat.”

17 “We have here only five loaves of bread and two fish,” they answered.

18 “Bring them here to me,” he said.19 And he directed the people to sit down on the grass. Taking the five loaves and the two fish and looking up to heaven, he gave thanks and broke the loaves. Then he gave them to the disciples, and the disciples gave them to the people.20 They all ate and were satisfied, and the disciples picked up twelve basketfuls of broken pieces that were left over.21 The number of those who ate was about five thousand men, besides women and children.

What happened in the story?

Akemjot – He prayed to God and some food came down

Libby – He had 5 loaves of bread and 2 fish and he blessed it and more bread and fish came

Makur – He put the food on the floor and blessed them up to heaven and then it became more

Jevan – He blessed the food to make more

Nate – He blessed it and then he cracked it in halves to give to disciples an the disciples gave it to the crowd

Aidan – He blessed the fish and then there became more and disciples put it in baskets

Ava – He blessed it and then somehow divided it into some pieces for them to feed the crowd

Libby – He blessed it to God and then I think God saw there there were a bunch of people who were hungry and so he made more of it

Akemjot – I think God listened because Jesus was a kind person and God helps kind people so he sent more bread and fish down

INVESTIGATIONS

Today, as agents of our own learning, we planned the who, what, when and where of our investigative play.

We also checked in with the teachers and updated our list of books we have read for the Readathon.We have read over 100!! Less than 200 to go until we reach our goal.
